Turning 30 and Letting Go of Financial Expectations Ft. Ellie Austin-Williams

What did you think you would have achieved financially by your thirties? Owning your own property? Being able to afford to rent and live alone? Buying designer handbags? Taking as many holidays as you wanted? For most of us, our thirties were a distant time in the future where we would have the pleasure of being able to afford what we wanted, when we wanted. After all, our parents did all of those things in their twenties- why should we expect any different! On this week’s episode, I have invited back money expert Ellie Austin-Williams to have an open and honest conversation all about the financial expectations most of us have in our thirties. The truth is, being in our thirties and not where we want to be when it comes to our finances is very confronting. And that’s why in this episode, Ellie and I are giving a voice to these important and sometimes ‘taboo’ topics.   Topics that we dive into include: Expectations at thirty and why we feel so much pressure at this age Comparison of financial status and how privilege shows up The current economy and cost of living crisis and how it is impacting our generation and the choices we make, from where we live to whether we want children Why millennials are so obsessed with owning a property, and other ways to look at this expected milestone Redundancy and how to make the most of big life changes and transitions   Ellie has appeared as an expert panelist for brands including Glamour and Monzo as well as providing insight and comment for Refinery29, Stylist, BBC News and more. Ellie is also the co-host of the podcast Money Unfiltered- and in this episode she shares so much knowledge and interesting insights.   Ellie: IG: @thisgirltalksmoney Website: https://www.thisgirltalksmoney.co.uk/   Emma: IG: @turning30coach   You are invited to join us for The Align Retreat taking place this August (3-7th) in Kent, UK.
